Call for Entries – North Ridge country Club Art Gala 2013

CALL FOR ENTRIES

NORTH RIDGE COUNTRY CLUB ART GALA 2013

JURIED ART COMPETITION AND SALE

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 2013

RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA

North Ridge Country Club wishes to promote art and area artists, while also developing increased art appreciation within its membership.  The club also intends to develop a permanent art collection in its clubhouse for members to enjoy.  In order to achieve this goal, North Ridge will sponsor a juried art competition, culminating in a special event to showcase the work of the selected artists.

Jennifer Dasal, Associate Curator of Contemporary Art at the North Carolina Museum of Art, will serve as juror and select 25 pieces for the show from submitted artwork.  The creators of those pieces will be able to offer additional work for sale at the North Ridge Country Club Art Gala February 23.  Club members and their guests will attend the party to view the work and possibly add pieces to their personal collections.  In addition, there will be a Purchase Award piece selected for North Ridge to hang in the club’s permanent collection.  The juror will choose first, second and third place award winners, who will receive recognition at the Gala and the opportunity to display their work for a designated number of weeks at North Ridge.
